Birmingham car accident lawyers for collisions big and small

Crashes across Birmingham

Local roads, local risks, local help

Car wrecks happen daily on I-65, I-20/59, Highway 31, and high-traffic stretches like Highway 280 and Lakeshore Parkway. Even a “minor” collision can leave you with whiplash, back pain, or a concussion that shows up days later. Maxwell Tillman represents drivers, passengers, and pedestrians hurt in Birmingham, Hoover, Bessemer, and throughout Jefferson County.


We know how insurers handle claims in Alabama, and we do not let them define your injuries or your recovery.

Why legal help matters

Insurance companies move fast to protect themselves

After a crash, the other driver’s insurance adjuster may sound polite, but their job is to close your claim cheaply. They may question your pain, blame you for the wreck, or push you into a quick settlement before you know your full medical outlook. In Alabama, proving you were not at fault is critical, so what you say and what gets documented early can shape everything that follows.


Our attorneys step in to handle those conversations, preserve evidence, and build a claim that reflects your full cost of recovery.


What your case may include

Compensation that covers the real damage

 A strong car accident claim can include:

  • Emergency care, follow-up treatment, therapy, and medication

  • Lost wages and reduced future earning ability

  • Pain, limitations, and disruption to your daily life

  • Vehicle damage and other out-of-pocket costs

We calculate damages carefully and do not stop at the first number an insurer offers.
